The Seattle Kraken are not exactly eliminated from the Stanley Cup Playoffs at this time. Anything can happen in these final couple months of the regular season.

The New York Rangers have not had a good 2024-25 season to this point. New York began the season looking like a legitimate Stanley Cup contender. However, they soon fell off a cliff and plunged near the bottom of the Eastern Conference. This sparked multiple trades as the team attempted to figure this thing out. […]

The Seattle Kraken have been without Jordan Eberle since mid-November. Eberle underwent pelvic surgery and has not played since November 14.

The Seattle Kraken have mostly struggled in the 2024-25 NHL season, and are on track to miss the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the third time in their four-year history.

The Chicago Blackhawks are not good in 2024-25. But at this time last season, it seemed as if they had some legitimate hope.

The Seattle Kraken and Winnipeg Jets couldn’t be moving on two more opposite spectrums at this point in the season.

The Toronto Maple Leafs dealt with Nick Robertson trade rumors all offseason long. Robertson even requested a trade early in the offseason ahead of NHL Free Agency.
